NYC DOE Arts Partnership Grants
Arts Horizons has proudly completed our third year of participating in two initiatives of the NYC DOE’s Arts Partnership Grants – the “Arts for English Language Learners and Students with Disabilities” and the “Arts for Family Engagement” grants. Since 2014, we have had the privilege of working with several school communities such as: IS 77Q, 469X, 690K, 63Q, and 46X (Family Engagement) along with Hospital Schools (M401) at Mt. Sinai Hospital, Kings County Hospital, Bronx Lebanon Hospital, and Metropolitan Hospital.
Specifically, our programs for Literacy Development and Socio-emotional Growth engage students in hands-on workshops that stimulate creativity, vocabulary development, speaking, and other communication skills. Arts Horizons’ performing and visual arts programs can help students of all abilities to realize their potential and succeed in learning. The programs we offer include: “Storytelling through Music and Movement,” bookmaking, “Messages through Music” (Hip-Hop and Beatboxing), mural-making, and more!
The grant application window has been announced for the 2017-2018 cycle of the program with a deadline of Friday June 9, 2017. Arts Horizons is working with our current partners to further build upon our efforts. We also welcome the opportunity to dialogue with potential candidates to brainstorm and support the application process.
